Subject: Pirates in popular culture

Written By: 90s was the gold on 09/16/12 at 4:28 pm

This is a thread for pirates in popular culture. This can include stuff from any decade and sharing of your experiences with pirate-themed popular culture is also welcomed.

Something to start this off:

Obviously, Survivor: Pearl Islands was pirate-themed. There is a large supply of pirate-themed audio-visual throughout the season so instead of posting a countless number of videos, I'll just put up the intro:

This is off topic, but I love when Survivor has themes in the imagery and props and stuff

Pearl Islands - Pirate theme
Palau - Battles of World War II
Guatemala - Mayan Civilization
Gabon - Garden of Eden

Me too. I also like how the cultures of the places they have been to have been embraced. Pearl Islands and Vanuatu are particularly good examples of this.

I wonder why people love pirates but hate other kinds of criminals. It seems like pirates are so romanticized.

I remembered the song.  I forgot all the other one-liners in there that only adults would get.

The Pirate King: What's the age of consent around here?
Mabel: Eighteen.
The Pirate King: Good! I'm old enough.

Mabel: You'll be hung!
The Pirate King: Oh I am, I am, and very well thank you.

Frederic: I'm sorry! I didn't mean to deflower you!

^ They're making a realistic pirate movie with adult themes.  It'll star Johnny Depp, Justin Beiber, and Pink.  Due to the graphic content, it's going to be rated arrrrrr!

It's quite possibly the biggest budget porn film ever.  A porn film to make it to Blu-Ray is somewhat rare
